dad: "No, you can't do that"
sister: "mom's her own person, she can do what she wants"

(tbf this is reported secondhand through my sister, but it is 0% surprising, even if the details aren't totally right have personally witnessed many situations very similar to that)

I'm really surprised that most of the comments seem to be focusing on the weed part. The weed part wasn't the issue, it was his authority being challenged, the "she's her own person" comment. I'm *super* confused that this wasn't obvious!

People who get old enough to have kids, avoiding a bunch of potentially fun things because they were unbecoming, are prooobably going to be asshats about others leaving the box.

Weed has been so demonized, that unfortunately I think that might be a common reaction.

I don't know you or your family but after seeing how people behave these days I had no issue imagining that scenario very clearly.
